Joe Allen. Now that's a player we need to discuss.

Most intriguing player on the squad IMO.

One week I hate him and want him sold, the other he's the best guy on the squad.

I have made it known I am not a fan of his size but it doesn't seem to be too big of an issue(no pun intended) but Joe just confuses me. I look at him and just say let's get rid of him he isn't that important and we can find anybody that could replace him but the #'s speak for themselves when it comes to his presence on the ball. Also that article made me think about a lot of his intangibles such as his role to help implement BR's style into the squad.

I'm not sold on him yet though I'll admit he will be better than what I'm giving him credit for I just don't know/think he'll be what that article was implying for us.

What do y'all think?
